RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

Quick question for you guys with power 90s or even possibly power110 and Tru Turn spinners:What adapter did you order to fit the prop shaft? The nose bolt is just slightly too big to fit inside the...

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

Well I was certainly hoping to use 6s on this setup, but all of the information I've read says that maybe 6s isnt enough power. So I guess I will have to do an 8s setup. 16x8 is a massive prop for...

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

I think I'm going to convert mine to EP.  Everything else in my hanger is EP and I just can't deal with the headache of trying to tune this inverted supertigre.  I feel more comfortable with EP.  I'm...

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

Ahhhh, i just figured it out! I guess I continuously looked over this part of the instructions. 135mm from firewall to base of the prop.

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

Did you happen to bind the tx and rx with the gear switch in the up position? I'd say just try a rebind making sure that the switch is in the down position. Even if you did the first time, if...

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

A quick question to anyone that can help. I have finished breaking in this engine and am about to put the cowl on, but I've realized that the engine is much much too far back! The cowl wont fit...

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

Well Jim, the company that makes this particular prop is Master Airscrew.   I wanted so much to get a 4 blade, but there really is no point  unless you want a serious performance hit like you said. ...

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

That's a Super Tigre 90 there under the hood.  I'm going to be drilling a new set of holes in my engine mounts.  The engine is much too far backwards.  This particular muffler has more than enough...

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

Well I'm back from vacation and I thought I'd post some pics of my Bird. I did a quick CG measurement and was pleased to find my CG at about 73mm from the leading edge. Just took this pic while in...

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

Hey Deuce, thanks for the tip on the push rod. I honestly had no idea as to what size that push rod was. You have released a ton of stress from off of my shoulders!

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

Hey Tagore, since you're using electric retracts, would you be willing to sell me your pushrods that were meant for the mains?  the thick  3mm ones. I misread the instructions and chopped them too...

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

That's what I was going to recommend. Cutting the cowl right behind the prop where the "intake" would be. You would most certainly get your desired cooling effect. And it would also look more...

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

I will say that yes, I didn't alter the CG at all. A note about hanger rash. I noticed that in transport the ventral FIN is easier to have on than the ventral antenna AND fin. The antenna would break...

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

Well, I couldn't give you a concrete figure on the weight now seeing as my aircraft is in another country. :D ( I'm on vacation) I'm powering it now with a Super Tigre G90. And I must say it's a bit...

RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

Well being that I have this model as well I thought I would share some of my experiences as well. Ditch the  red spinner because it is cheap crap that flew apart after 2 flights. It also makes it...
